keep in mind hes single turbo..we would really wanna look at stretchbs' Car...
If hes willing to reveal the converter or what would work for his combo...

True!
I'm hoping that the twins can build a lil boost sooner than these singles haha so that I can get away with this converter.

I dont know why people always say this. When i put up a graph it will show my single will spool up as quick if not quicker then some twin kits. A properly sized turbo makes all the difference.

:rockon:

turbos need 2 things to spool

Load and RPM the more rpm you have the easier it will be to spool its basic. So unless a twin kit spools at 2000 you will still need a bigger converter.

With a 3B its near impossible to hold it at 3200 unless the trans is hot or you have the E brake set.

Most of the testing i was doing was on 20s so we had a big front tire to help hold the car. Now with skinnys the 4 inch tires are not really doing a good job of holding. The 4B i think will work perfect for this all you need is about 3200 RPM and fairly easy to hold it there with a 2 setp. If i Had that on Als car it would of went 8.70s by now

I dont think its bad at all IMO on a turbo car its basically NA under normal driving conditions. You really start to feel it getting loser when in boost.

We have a 3B in Al Davis's car and it pretty much drives like stock

What an awesome build. I'm impressed that youre doing it right the first time and doing it yourself. Can't wait to see this thing in action.

I may just leave the 2B in there because my 6R80 will be able to stay in D & R soon :|

Others might not have a clue as to what you're referring to so please enlighten them! Make sure you break it down for them "cave man" style!
